BReconciled!

Not falling down this time. I can remember when I first learned how to ride a bike and…….how to fall off one. I remember always falling at the same spot, always the same bump in the road. Why didn’t I just ride on the other side to avoid it altogether.

You know our walk with Christ can be the same way at times, often we tend to struggle with the same sin, that same bump seems to knock us off our spiritual bicycle’s, As I got better at riding I would see that bump long before I got to it, and I would brace myself for it, repeating to myself over and over again, “this time I’m not going to fall” and before I knew it, it was just that another a bump in the road.

Today I was reading proverbs and in 24:16 it says “for the righteous falls seven times and rises again, but the wicked stumble in times of calamity.”

I have falling more than seven times sadly, but just as it says, i rise again, and today when I see those bump’s in the road ahead, I decide that I’m not gonna fall, so I begin to repeat God’s promise’s to myself and to hold tight to my Spirit handlebar’s ( my Faith), and I ride right over and soon they’re just bumps along the road to Heaven!

God Bless! If and when we do fall, be sure to arise! As always, To God be the Glory!
